Not recording events

[Sprinarkus]

Describe the problem you are having

Not sure if its my config. Cameras are up and running, motion is being detected fine, but nothing will record(nothing shows up as alerts or detections in Review panel) TensorRT Version is 8. Debug says everything is fine. Just trying to record when an object is present. Started off with just tracking a person and walking out in front of the camera and nothing happens in events.

Started with 'record: all' 'events: motion' and changed it to what my config says now thinking that might be it.

Any help is appreciated. Ive had an earlier version up and running in the past, so im not completely out of my element with troubleshooting this, just no idea what direction to go at this point.

Its probably something simple ive overlooked...

  # TIP: Imagine there is an event clip with a person walking from left to right.
  #      If the event timeline bounding box is consistently to the left of the person
  #      then the value should be decreased. Similarly, if a person is walking from
  #      left to right and the bounding box is consistently ahead of the person
  #      then the value should be increased.
  # TIP: This offset is dynamic so you can change the value and it will update existing
  #      events, this makes it easy to tune.
  # WARNING: Fast moving objects will likely not have the bounding box align.

Your config is incomplete. The model config is missing required fields that are included in the docs https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/object_detectors/#configuration-parameters

[Sprinarkus]

Thank you so much! That was it! Ive been pulling my hair out for 2 days for that lol

Also curious... what does the red blinking light mean at the top right of the camera? I looked for the meaning in the docs, but didnt see anything on it.

[NickM-27]

it means the camera is live due to it detecting motion. The red outline means it is detecting an active object
